Abstract

Uterine leiomyomas are common, monoclonal tumors affecting 25% to 45% of reproductive age women. Although frequently asymptomatic, leiomyomas may cause heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure or pain, and infertility. Myomectomy, which is indicated in symptomatic women who wish to preserve their reproductive function, may be performed by hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, or laparotomy, according to their size, location, number, and the experience of the surgeon. The latter is the most important determinant, as the completeness of the myomectomy and the adequacy of the myometrial closure will determine the subsequent function of the organ in relieving the symptoms and restoring reproductive potential.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 March 2013.
All research outputs
#19,944,091
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology
#991
of 1,635 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#93,297
of 102,318 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology
#11
of 18 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,635 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.1. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 102,318 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 18 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
